Swimming with Sharks
In an effort to spur myself to greatness, I’m going to state objectives for August loud and clear right here for all to see. Whether I come back to reveal the results at month end or give any updates in between is an entirely different matter!
This month my goal is to face the aggro-shark infested waters of Full Tilt micro limits and accrue a minimum of $50 rakeback without going broke. I’m starting with about 300BB.
For me this isn’t going to be easy:
- somewhat embarrassingly, I’m a losing player at $.25/$.50 6max at both Full Tilt and Party Poker.
- I don’t get to play many hands per month due to work commitments
- I have a bad record playing aggressive opposition
- My hand reading sucks :(
I named this post “Swimming with Sharks†not because I want to swim with them but because it’s an inevitabe outcome of playing regularly at any site these days.
Table selection/quitting must be one of the first skills to improve this month, followed immediately by better hand-reading. Without these pillars supporting my game, I may only last a few sessions!
